Why is one acceptable, and the other not??

The author(s) of those articles copied and posted here are probably flattered that someone chose to discuss his/her missives.  If not, why write them and put them out there in the first place?  Besides, whether the authors know that we're supposedly cutting their articles to shreads does not stop them from coming here and defending themselves.  They can do that.  Posting threads from this site to The "retreat" and allowing others to read catty comments about those threads/posters but blocking people from responding is cowardly and pathethic.

You know, we all could set here and trash Jess on this forum.
What's the point.  She's gone.  We go on to better things.

I am happy for the ones that followed her and that they feel they have a place
they belong now. That's great.

However, the fact that they feel the need to continue to come here and
copy and post and ridicule everyone posts, tells me they might not be that
content.

If they were, why do they keep worrying about what we are saying and doing.

I say we just don't worry about them.  Ignore it and take the higher road.

They obviously have some deep issues.

We really all should be flattered they are so interested.

 If they don't get why we are upset with what they are doing, then
mores the pity.
Ain't gonna change.

OK. So its not the cross-posting and conversation going on over there, its the fact that others are prohibited from participating. That I can understand. Maybe its not "fair." But I don't think its reasonable for anyone here to expect that Jess is going to let you in after being kicked off this board. She's allowed to pick and chose who her friends are.

Does anyone here want to go over there?
